Maths Assessment

Guidance

  • These sheets will be used for planning, pupil targets and sharing with parents
  • Instead of levels each stage shows the expectations for the end of that year group. Stage 1 = Year 1, Stage 2 = Year 2 etc. A child in Year 5 could be on stage 2
  • In total there are 6 stages, one for each year group. There is also a P-level stage and a Stage 7
  • The statements are all taken from the National Curriculum for Maths
  • Each statement is worth 1 point
  • The stages are split up into 3 sub stages – c (below) b (developing) c(secure)
  • Children must be secure before moving to the next stage
  • The scoring to work out each child’s stage is at the end of each table
  • Children should be assessed half termly and you will use evidence from Maths books
  • Ticks should be recorded in each half termly column and the overall score should be inserted in the last column
  • Children should be given the stage which is appropriate to their year group, however some children may be working at a stage below.
  • Target sheets should be kept in a class folder and each child should have a sheet appropriate to their ability
  • Target sheets should also be stuck in children’s books so children can access them
  • Target sheets (Inside Parent Guides) for each child will be sent home in the Autumn term
  • OTrack will be developed to allow teachers to input the new scores/stages
  • Maths moderation meetings will take place every term

Stage 6 Maths Targets / A1 / A2 / Sp1 / Sp2 / Su1 / Su2
Number & Place Value / Read, write, order and compare numbers up to 10,000,000 and determine the value of each digit
Round any whole number to a required degree of accuracy
Use negative numbers in context, and calculate intervals across zero
Solve number and practical problems that involve all of the above.
+ - x and ÷ / Multiply numbers up to 4 digits by a two-digit whole number using the formal written method of long multiplication
Divide numbers up to 4 digits by a two-digit whole number using the formal written method of long division, and interpret remainders as whole number remainders, fractions, or by rounding
Perform mental calculations with mixed operations and large numbers
Identify common factors, common multiples and prime numbers
Use their knowledge of the order of operations to carry out calculations involving the four operations
Solve addition and subtraction multi-step problems in contexts
Fractions, Decimals & Percentages / Use common factors to simplify fractions; use common multiples to express fractions in the same denomination
Compare and order fractions, including fractions > 1
Add and subtract fractions with different denominators and mixed numbers, using the concept of equivalent fractions
Multiply simple pairs of proper fractions, writing the answer in its simplest form
Divide proper fractions by whole numbers
Associate a fraction with division and calculate decimal fraction equivalents for a simple fraction
Identify the value of each digit in numbers given to three decimal places and multiply and divide numbers by 10, 100 and 1000 giving answers up to three decimal places
Ratio & Proportion / Solve problems involving the relative sizes of two quantities where missing values can be found by using integer multiplication and division facts
Solve problems finding percentages of amounts and measures and use percentages for comparison
Solve problems involving similar shapes where the scale factor is known or can be found
Solve problems involving unequal sharing and grouping using knowledge of fractions and multiples.
Algebra / Use simple formulae
Generate and describe linear number sequences
Express missing number problems algebraically
Find pairs of numbers that satisfy an equation with two unknowns
List possibilities of combinations of two variables.
Measurement / Solve problems involving the calculation and conversion of units of measure, using decimal notation up to three decimal places
Use, read, write and convert between standard units, converting measurements using decimals to up to three decimal places
Convert between miles and kilometres
Recognise that shapes with the same areas can have different perimeters and vice versa
Recognise when it is possible to use formulae for area and volume of shapes
Calculate the area of parallelograms and triangles
Calculate, estimate and compare volume of cubes and cuboids using standard units (cm3/m3/mm3/km3)
Geometry / Draw 2-D shapes using given dimensions and angles
Recognise, describe and build simple 3-D shapes, including making nets
Compare and classify shapes based on their properties and sizes and find unknown angles in any triangles, quadrilaterals, and regular polygons
Illustrate and name parts of circles, including radius, diameter and circumference and know that the diameter is twice the radius
Recognise angles where they meet at a point, are on a straight line, or are vertically opposite, and find missing angles.
Position & Direction / Describe positions on the full coordinate grid (all four quadrants)
Draw and translate simple shapes on the coordinate plane, and reflect them in the axes.
Statistics / Interpret and construct pie charts and line graphs and use these to solve problems
Calculate and interpret the mean as an average
0-13= 6c 14-27 = 6b 28-42 = 6a
